Stove Top No Bake Scotch Scones Recipes

SCOTCH SCONES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter by rubbing the mixture between your fingers until the mixture is fine and crumbly; stir in the raisins. In a small bowl, mix together the egg and milk; mix with dry ingredients to form a soft dough.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch in thickness. Dip cutter into flour, and stamp out scones. You may need to re roll the dough to get 12.
• Heat dry non-stick griddle over medium heat. Cook each side of the scone until slightly raised and golden brown in color. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

SCOTTISH GIRDLE SCONES

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
• Cube the cold butter and place in a mixer with the sugar. Use a flat beater to combine--don't worry about it being perfect. You are not creaming this until light and fluffy.
• Add the flour mixture and once again beat to combine.
• Mix in the currants
• Whisk together the buttermilk and egg until the egg is thoroughly emulsified into buttermilk. Then add the buttermilk mixture to the mixer bowl and beat until just combined.
• Remove about half of the dough and pat it into a circle--be sure not to over-handle. Roll to about 3/4 inch thickness, and then use a biscuit cutter to cut into circles. I used a 2-inch diameter circle. Set aside on a platter for cooking. Repeat with remaining dough and when you are down to scraps just make a scone or 2 shaped with your hands that will not be perfect circles. Think of them as the cook's treat!
• As with pancakes, it may take 1 or 2 scones the first time you make these to get the heat just right for your particular cooktop. Cast iron or enameled cast iron works best. If you are concerned use a little butter to grease the pan (if you use stainless steel, which I do not recommend, you may need a lot of butter which will change the final result). On my induction cooktop medium to slightly below medium heat worked best, although I started at a higher temperature. You will know it is ready when a little flour sprinkled on the surface turns light brown immediately.
• Cook on the first side until the scone is raised and light brown on the bottom. Flip to cook until light brown on the other side and cooked all the way through. As with pancakes, you may need to slice into your first one to make sure you are getting it right, but after that it will go fast. And after that first one, you can cook more than one at a time, but do not overcrowd them or they will not rise properly or brown.
• These scones in dough form felt quite heavy and then when they were done they were quite light. My best guess is from water evaporating.
• Smother in butter and honey and devour immediately. Or take some to the neighbor wrapped in a towel.

STOVE TOP NO BAKE SCOTCH SCONES

Steps:

• Must have a griddle if want to be stovetop, but may also try 350°F oven (I don't know how long because I always use griddle).
• Sift together dry ingredients then cut in butter or lard. Make a hole in the center and pour in buttermilk.
• Stir until a soft dough mix. Roll out with rolling pin to 1/2 inch thick.
• Cut into squares and then fry on a hot greased griddle as if pancakes, but will be thicker.
• Brown both sides or a oven as mentioned above.
• Serve hot or cold with frosting or powdered sugar. I like butter alone.

GRIDDLE SCONES

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, sugar, and salt.
• With a pastry blender cut in the butter till mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Add buttermilk and egg to above and mix lightly till mixtures forms a soft dough.
• Heat griddle with a tad of shortening.
• Drop dough by heaping tablespoons to make 3 or 4 scones; with the back of a spoon, spread dough into a flattened 3" round (to be repeated when these are done).
• Cook till golden brown on remaining side and center seems firm when gently pressed.
• Remove and keep warm till all the scones are baked.
• Serve warm with butter and jam or lemon curd.
• ORIGINALLY: An ungreased griddle was used, however, a lightly greased one is suggested unless you have a well-seasoned one.

GRIDDLE SCONES

Steps:

• Mix the flour and salt together and cut in butter with a pastry cutter or 2 knives until the mixture resembles bread crumbs.
• Stir in the currants and the nutmeg, then form a well in the middle.
• Beat together the eggs and milk and pour into the well.
• Using a wooden spoon, mix the egg mixture into the flour, stirring from the center and drawing the flour in from the sides to form a smooth thick batter.
• Heat a heavy based frying pan or griddle to med heat and grease with oil.
• Drop tablespoonfuls of batter onto pan and cook 2-3 mins or until the bases are set and have turned golden brown.
• Turn scones over and cook the other side in the same way.

STOVETOP SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat a cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
• Combine the baking mix, sugar, egg and milk in a medium bowl. Mix gently. Form a ball and knead the dough gently on a floured surface for 5 to 8 strokes, until the dough holds together. Pat or roll the dough to form a 6-inch circle. Cut the dough into 12 wedges.
• Grease pan with shortening. Turn down to medium heat and add the wedges of dough.. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, adjusting the heat and repositioning the wedges until they're an even pancake-brown. Flip and cook another 3 to 4 minutes.
• Serve with raspberry jam and sweet butter.

GRIDDLE SCONES

Steps:

• Heat flat cast iron pan on low heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until hot. (To test, sprinkle with a little flour; if it browns in 10 to 15 seconds, the pan is hot enough.).
• Meanwhile in a large mixing bowl, stir flour, baking powder, salt and sugar; with fingertips, rub in shortening or lard until crumbly.
• Whisk egg with 1 cup of the milk.
• Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients; pour in the liquid. With wooden spoon, stir to make soft, but not sticky dough, adding more milk as needed.
• Turn out onto floured board, knead 3 or 4 times. Pat or roll to no more than 1/4 - 1/2 inch.
• With a sharp knife, cut into small triangles.
• Place a few at a time on pan; cook, rotating scones occasionally for 5 to 6 minutes or until bottoms are browned.
• Serve hot.
